The Hawks have more of what players? We have a bunch of junk, Dach, and Debrincat who were, you guessed it, drafted by us. Trading for a top Dman when we were a shit team hasn't improved us one bit. The teams that have went from shit to great, drafted well, and barely made any moves in free agency or trade to become great. They traded or signed free agents when they were already good teams, looking to make that jump.
But we argued this all off-season, not going to get into it again. Whats done is done, and it's depressing.
